My wife and I have decided that with the difficulties of arranging childcare in the week we're just going to spend the evening at home, have a nice meal and watch a film.
I'm looking for inspiration for the meal!
I'm a fairly competent cook and don't mind trying my hand at new things. Neither of us are fussy eaters and there's little that's ruled out. The only stipulations are that the ingredients aren't difficult to get hold of (i.e. in most supermarkets) and that the prep and cooking time isn't much more than 90 minutes to two hours.
Something a bit different and more special to the curries, roasts, pies, stir fries, steak 'n' chips, etc. we usually make.
Any guidelines on an accompanying wine would be great too. We both like red. My wife's particularly fond of South American Malbecs and also Riojas/Temprenillos, but open to epxerimentation if anything pairs well with the meal.
